Iceout 2011

It has definitely begun. We were in Wolfeboro yesterday. Still many weeks to go, but all the signs are there. I'll post some of the pictures I took later.

Back Bay is open and open water is flowing out into the lake well beyond Mount dock
Edges along shoreline showing signs of decay
Lakeport temp readings up to 35 today
WeatherCam temp at 10 feet now rising daily, along with 2 feet
Many areas have lost their snow cover, both on the lake and ground

And as of today, an extra hour of sunlight to melt things!

The ice is definitely retreating. The docks are really opening up and with 50 degree weather coming the end of the week progress will be made. my goal is to havetheboat in by April 16th.
